1st practice summary

The Hajj

Muslims from all the world go to Mecca to make the Hajj. All Muslims who are fit can do the hajj. The   ka aba is in the center of the mosque.  Before entering Mecca men have to shave their head and cut their nails but women also wear white long robes but uncover their face. You can see peoples from many cultures in Mecca. The first thing they must to do is walk seven times around the Ka aba. The second thing they do is walk seven times between Safa and Marwah. On the next day the Pilgrims go to mina and stay for one night. Next morning they travel to Arafat. On the same evening they travel to Muzdalifah and they Camp for one night. The next day they go back to mina and throw seven pebbles at each of three statues at the jamarat. Finally they go back to Mecca to make Tawaf around the Ka aba and go back to their home
